| March 16, 2002 Topic: Soul Mates (do they exist) This is a topic on alot of people's minds especially where they are not in a relationship or on the verge of a marriage etc. You have to stop and think to yourself "is this the person that I am destined to be with." I think this has alot to do with the whole "cold feet" factor of engagments. You overanalize and think too much when you should be feeling. As for singles they sit at home or go out to clubs and think to themselves "the one" is out there I only have to find him/her. Well who has to say that there is a specific person out there for everyone? Did some people that never marry get a shitty end of the relationship stick? Not worthy of love so they have no soul mate, or could they have passed by them and never known the difference because they were so wraped up in thier own lives at the time? That would be hard for me to believe that someone could just pass by thier soul mate in a restaurant and not know or not do anything about it despite the consequences of thier actions. You would think "fate" if fate were to exist would bring the two togeather no matter what. So you say what about the couples that marry and live happily ever after glad to have found each other and stating that they knew it was meant to be from the first time they met? Well could it be possible that those people had a strong physical attraction for each other and as they got to know each other realized that they had personalities that "clicked". Couldn't each of the couple have found others that just happned to "click" later on in life? I also ask you about people that marry a second time they feel the first one they marry is "the one" and tragicaly something happens to one of them. Eventually the remaining spouse finds someone else falls in love and thinks to themselves this is "the one". Well how can someone have two "the one's" did they happen to get lucky when soulmates were given out and received two for the price of one soul mate? The thing is it's nice to think that there is someone out there or everyone especially if you are single. It gives you faith that eventually you will fall in love have a family and grow old with someone. Honestly though I feel life is a game of chance you have a 50/50 chance of getting married and being happy. you may marry and stay married, divorce may be in the future but I think the main thing to realize is that it's not about finding "the one". Again thinking about finding "the one" is to put a full bet on a theory that fate exists maybe we should concern ourselves more with just finding someone that in 50 years you'll still have things to talk about with. Of course when I give it a little more thought wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that the person you do find actually is your soulmate.......... Anything is possible. |
